G'day Ulisus I'm so sorry to hear about your late mother. I know just how you feel. My father passed away just 5 months ago and it hurts do deeply. I'm glad that you have gotten back to you incredible model, it will take your mind off things only for a while. And each day it becomes very slightly easier. The coils look great. God bless Greg

G'day Nils I always thought your model was incredible, but I was wrong! It's bloody amazing incredible. Looking at that finished model that you showed us re the Y brace, your model is in a completely different higher league than that model. Well done mate. Havagooday Greg

They sure did Patrick. Beautiful work on the hull Dan. The open hull design might be a problem, but I'm sure you can get around this matter. Havagooday Greg

G'day Mark I'm sure that Pete will agree with me when I say that your log is a perfect example of what to do in building this great ship. The yards are brilliant, just as I would expect from you. And the amount of details are exceptional. Congratulations on another milestone mate. Greg

G'Day Dave In my research about the Endeavour years ago, I read somewhere that they moved the cannons from one deck to another to even out the weight in heavy weather. But I don't recall that they moved them down below decks. That's all I can remember. Sorry about that! Havagooday Greg

Australian English 101 G'Day all In Australia we make a few words in a sentence into one longer word. We, I must admit, are a bit lazy in our speaking, but for us it's normal. The reason why I'm writing this down, so other countries and their population might under stand our lingo. Some examples are:. Lingo = language Ozzie = Australian Havta = have to Havtagree = have to agree etc G'Day = good day Havagooday = have a good day Havagreatrip = have a great trip etc If you say it out loud long enough, I hope that you may understand our poor speech. In Australia we use bloody a lot. Bloody is one of our best adjective to describe something so good or some times bad. Eg bloody fantastic is very good. Bloody terrible is very bad. We also break down large words into a smaller/shorter word eg. Air conditioner to Aircon. There are many more facets to our unique language, above are only a small sample. havagooday to all Greg

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
